This diameterModel is intended for use with a populationBalanceModel in order to simulate polydispersed bubbly or particulate flows. It can hold any number of sizeGroups from which the Sauter mean diameter is calculated. It can also be used as a diameterModel without a populationBalance and would then behave like a constantDiameter model. In this case, some arbitrary name must be entered for the populationBalance keyword. More...

Detailed Description

This diameterModel is intended for use with a populationBalanceModel in order to simulate polydispersed bubbly or particulate flows. It can hold any number of sizeGroups from which the Sauter mean diameter is calculated. It can also be used as a diameterModel without a populationBalance and would then behave like a constantDiameter model. In this case, some arbitrary name must be entered for the populationBalance keyword.

Usage

Property	Description
`populationBalance`	Name of the corresponding populationBalance
`formFactor`	Form factor for converting diameter into volume
`sizeGroups`	List of sizeGroups

Example
